A/N: It's been forever since I put a chapter, but I'm now posting one. Enjoy.
"School is canceled," Peach asked Mario. "I even got the uniform ready!"
The people who had to go to school were in the living room getting explained about the current situation.
"I'm so glad I didn't have to go school," Athena said quietly to herself.
"So why aren't se going," Marth asked Mario.
"It's because of the new Smashers," he replied. He looked at everyone and eyed them. "I want everyone on their best behavior."
"Yeah, on your best behavior," Link whispered in Athena's ear. She just stared at him as if he were crazy.
"I'm always on my best behavior," she whispered back. All Link could do was sweat drop.
"No one knows who the new Smashers are, but me and Peach," Mario continued. "Make sure everyone is doing something to make this place clean."
Marth raised his hand and Mario called on him. "Umm, so about last time when some of the old Smashers left because they wanted to. . ."
"Ahh, oh yeah! Some of them are returning. . . Not the stupid ones."
Roy, Link, Samus, Zelda and Roy just stared at Mario. "I'm pretty sure Dr. Mario was stupid," they all thought telepathically.
"Anyways, get started." Mario dismissed them to do what they could to help out with the mansion.
Chapter 11: Welcome
Athena decided now was a good time to go to the store. She went along with Ike and Samus. Marth stayed back and helped with the cleaning with the others.
"Maybe I should-" He was cut off because he felt the corner of his shirt being tugged. Kirby was causing this discomfort and told Marth that he had to help him clean the basement. Marth just said nothing and followed the pink warrior to the darkest place in the mansion.
Link just looked around and saw that many Smashers were trying their hardest to make the place spotless.
"You should start cleaning if I were you." Link saw that Ness was talking to him.
"Huh? Why," Link asked. He knew making the place unrecognizable was prior, but why now?
"Look." He pointed to a holographic screen that read "Cleaning Race". It was just floating there. On the leaderboards, for some reason Kirby was first with Marth as partners. "You'd better get started."
Link just stared at the board with confused eyes. "But who's my partner?"
"I am." Link turned around and knowing with a voice that calm, it was Zelda. "Let's try to win." She grabbed Link's hand out of surprise and dragged him to her destination.
"What is this?!" Ness turned around and saw Artemis with a terrifying face that could make a ghost cry. "I thought Zelda didn't like Link! That. . . That. . ."
"Friend-zoner," Ness managed to spit out since he was too scared to talk just by looking at her.
"Yes! It makes me so mad! Why is Zelda so interested in Link all of a sudden?"
"Maybe because her hormones started to react for the first time. . ."
Artemis thought about Ness's guess and thought that maybe, just maybe Zelda was just full guy, but her female side awakened by Link since to Artemis, that was his dream boat.
"I'm going to go on the roof."
"Yeah, you go do that. . . I have some business to take care of." Ness suddenly had a press hat on with a press suit and a note pad. "Time to get some data."
Basement. . .
You couldn't see anything in the basement. . . Too dark. They basically had to guess where the items were. . . But Kirby had a flashlight helmet and handed one to Marth.
"Baking soda! I've got baking soda," Kirby sang super loud. Marth really wanted to rip him apart, but had to resist from doing so.
"Why are we cleaning this place anyway," Marth asked.
Kirby looked at the Prince, smiled sweetly and asked, "Remember the time when I fought bears?"
"What the hell!? You just avoided my question and when did you even fight bears?!"
"Let's stop talking and clean."
"You're the one-!" Marth stopped yelling at Kirby midway since he noticed that his light helmet was flickering. It died. Now it was pure dark.
"Now what do we do," Kirby asked in a panic tone. "I'm scared!"
"Just calm down. . . Can't you use one of your Saved Abilities?"
Marth heard Kirby "hum". He assumed that Kirby was thinking of an answer. ". . . Yeah. . . Light Kirby!"
"What the f-" A huge orb formed from Kirby's stub hand. It was a bright yellow light with a radiant glow. Marth had to cover his face from the light. It was soon released into the air and exploded, creating illuminating all the things in the basement.
A low growl was heard from the two. Then loud barking. Red eyes lit a dark corner of the basement. Marth and Kirby exchanged glances for second and looked at the corner. . .
"Run for it!" Marth made a move first, followed by Kirby, then the beast.
Backyard. . .
Sonic was cleaning the the Greek like garden with Snake and Roy. It had to get restructured at least 30 times due to the fights. Ikuto was taking a cat nap in an orange tree. He was just listening to the conversation between the Smashers. It's not like he had a choice.
"This Athena person is that strong," Snake asked while he was trimming some of the bushes with a large pair of sheers. "I should test her abilities out."
Sonic was moving a stone bench to the pavement. "Yeah. She's really fun to hangout with."
"She's one of the nicest people I've ever in this place. She treats me nicely," Roy said feeling really good about it.
Ikuto had one eye open and listened to their conversation about Athena. He wondered why she didn't treat him nicely, or hang out with him. It made him feel upset since the others were getting treated nicely by her. What was he doing wrong?
"So, who knows at to make Azuki bean soup," Snake randomly asked them. Roy and Sonic just didn't know what to say. "Because I was watching someone make it on a cooking show and now I want some."
"Hmm, maybe we could try and make it," Sonic said. "I never really heard of it, but let's give it a shot!"
Roy nodded in agreement. "Yeah! Let's go to the store right now!" The three of them left the backyard with an unfinished Greek garden.
Wal-Mart. . .
"I've always wanted to try this ever since I came to this time period!" Athena held up a small package of Sour Skittles. "I remember when Marth gave me Skittles! It was great!"
Ike flinched when he heard "Marth" in her sentence. Samus just watched the young warrior do a little happy dance with Sour Skittles. She then remembered that Master Hand told her to get food and restock the kitchen.
"Hey, guys, we're gonna do some shopping as well," Samus notified them. "We need to restock the kitchen and get some items for dinner as well."
"Are we having Japanese food," Athena asked Samus. "I barely tried any Japanese food in my life. I usually eat British food and French food. Not Japanese."
An idea popped in Ike's head for a dinner idea. "Kitsune udon." Samus scratched her head and wasn't so sure about that. Too much work to make it since there was too much people.
Athena thought that Kitsune udon was a fox cut up and mixed with udon noodles. She shuddered and had a bad feeling about dinner.
Meanwhile. . .
Snake, Sonic and Roy were in the canned food aisle looking for Azuki beans. Many girls watched them from different locations. The atmosphere in Wal-Mart started to get intense which made the girls' aura become darker.
"Ahh, found it!" Roy spotted the beans and grabbed it off the shelf. He tossed it into the basket that Snake was holding.
"Next we need mochi," Sonic said reading off from a list.
"Hey, isn't that Solid Snake, Sonic and Roy?"
The boys heard someone mutter their names and started to get frightened.
"What are they doing here?"
"I could really get more items for the fan club."
"I'm a fan of furries."
Sonic was already gone and left a blue smoke cloud behind. Roy and Snake zoomed out from their location and ran after Sonic, then a trail of fangirls started to chase them.
Ike heard a loud footsteps. Turning his head, sweatdropped and started to make a run for it with Athena and Samus.
Basement. . .
"Noa! Eat Kirby, not me!"
"Hey! I dun wanna die!"
The beast snarled. Each stop it took made Marth and Kirby even more scared. They were both trapped in a corner of the basement. The beast's red eyes sharpened even more.
"I forgot my sword too," Marth complained. "But it's already too late!"
The lights were flickering rapidly which caused Marth and Kirby to tense up more. The lights that illuminated the basement died.
It was easy to spot the beast since it had crimson eyes, but made it more intimidating. Those eyes mocked them.
Marth seemed to notice that it stopped moving towards them. He sighed with relief, but his safety was long gone when those same eyes were in the air and came crashing down on them.
Kitchen. . .
Peach was right now directing everyone what to do to make this place spotless. Every newcomer gets a tour when they join for the first time.
"Okay, make sure you clean the grease trap, Wario. Don't leave a mess, DK and Lucas, don't mix up the fruits with the vegetables."
It was going to become a clean kitchen. . . The doors slammed opened with weary Smashers collapsing on each other. It made the Smashers who were cleaning stop.
"What happened to you guys," Peach asked supr curious.
"W-Water," Ike managed to choke out. Lucas, out of nowhere, gave Ike a water bottle. The thirsty Smasher gulped it down until it was out. He looked much better after his drink. "Oh yeah! We got chased by fangirls."
". . . That's why you go to SmashMall. Duh," Peach said.
"But Walmart is cheaper."
The kitchen doors slammed open again with Ness and Toon Link. "Marth and Kirby are winning the Cleaning Wars," Ness informed Peach.
The Princess gasped feeling really surprised and asked Ness what their score was. He said it was 1,000,000 points with team Peach second with 600,000. She slammed her fist on the counter surprising everyone.
"How are they winning?!"
". . . I'm not sure. They haven't left the basement ever since Kirby came out."
Hall of Fame. . .
The Hall of Fame was on the third floor. Many gold light shown down on the portraits of the Smashers. It went from Veterans to the newcomers who joined. The red carpet added that fame effect.
Currently, Link was confused why Zelda dragged him here to dust the portraits. Zelda was humming quietly to herself- the Ocarina of Time theme. He wanted to speak to her, but wasn't feeling like he should.
"Link. . . "
"Wh-What?!" Of course he got startled. Zelda didn't even talk him ever since they started to clean.
"Umm. . . Link? I want. . ." She looked as if she were in love.
". . . Want what? Oh crap! This might be a confession like in anime I've seen! I hope that's not going to happen! . . . Or what if she's going to ask me if I love someone, then confess?! Being beautiful sure is a pain!" Beads of sweat rolled down the hero's face as Zelda was slowly opening her mouth ready to fire her question at him.
"Link. . . What. . . What do you think we're having for dinner tonight?"
Epic anime fall. "Don't do such misleading things!"
Basement. . .
"Kirby, did you die?!"
No response.
"My only source of communication is gone!"
"I'm alive! I just didn't feel like talking the first time."
"*sighs* Thank goodness. I would never would want to be left alone here."
"Same. Where are we anyways?"
"I don't know. There's no light. . . We're alive!"
". . . What happened to the beast?"
"Who cares, it probably died."
All of a sudden, the lights flickered uncontrollably. Every time it was light, they saw the beast with many cuts and flesh wounds. Every time it was dark, they saw those crimson eyes.
Marth's eyes widened. He slowly stood to his feet and tried to make an escape to the stairs. He ran like it was the end of the world with Kirby in his arms. Maneater followed him like a hawk. It was catching up quickly. The spiraling wooden stairs made clicking sounds every time Marth ran on them.
The stair Marth was on spilt in half. The ones behind Marth were already broken. The beast snarled, growled, anything to make them feel scared. If Marth let go of the other half of the stair, it would be his end, and Kirby's.
Making an attempt, it jumped and grabbed unto Marth's leg. The tears started to pour down slowly as the beast slowly sank it's sharp teeth into Marth's leg. He let out a cry of pain, trying to hold the tears in. It's claws also sank in into his leg.
Kirby just couldn't take this anymore. He let go of Marth's cape and jumped on the next stair that wasn't broken. He had already seen a knife of the staircase. Taking it, hoping on Marth's head, Kirby somehow reached low enough and stabbed the knife into its flesh, repeating the process. The teeth dug out along with the claws. The beast was never seen again. Kirby tried his best to help Marth up.
"Marth, you don't look so well," Kirby couldn't help but to ask since he looked as if he seen a ghost.
"I'm-I'm fine. It's just that I've never felt so scared from something like that. So vulnerable. I didn't have my sword and my basic self-defense comes with it," Marth replied. "Let's just get out of here. This place makes me feel sick."
". . . 'Kay."
They finally exited out of the basement with no Smasher in sight. Kirby pulled Marth out, then locked the door with 10 locks. Marth lay on his back breathing heavily.
"I think we may need to get you to a hospital or something. Your leg is covered with blood."
"Mmm. . ."
Snake happened to be passing by, but then saw Marth and Kirby. He eyed Marth particularly because you know what. He got a bandage out of nowhere, wrapped his leg with it, carried him on his back and sprinted out of the mansion. Kirby didn't want to do any explaining, so he chased after Snake.
Opening Ceremony. . .
Master Hand was pretty much on the stage talking forever about the Smashers and what happens here in the mansion. The Smashers in the crowd were bored as hell, waiting to see the newcomers already.
"Okay! Now I'd like to present to you, the newcomers."
Everyone clapped as they come on the stage. Ike couldn't help but to burst out laughing when he thought he saw that it was Marth doing drag. Samus was sitting by him, pointed a gun to his head, giving Ike the signal to either shut the hell up or die.
"These are the Smashers that should be welcomed here. We may see a familiar face, but just keep at good standards."
Meanwhile. . .
Athena was outside the ceremony room since she received a phone call from Faithful.
"Yeah and he's still not giving up. It seems that he still recovering from Link, but his HP is really high along with his Def and Crit rate," Faithful informed.
"I guess I should get more Atk and Crit, huh?"
"Yeah. Also, he created something called the "Blood Warriors" to steal the your heart."
"He's trying so hard to get my heart because it's filled with anything you can imagine to rule the world. But I was born with it so it gave me powers of good. If Aki uses it, imagine how horrible he will treat us as slaves!"
"Yeah! No more meals!"
"True! Anyways, I'll get started on my training tomorrow with Artemis and Ikuto. Call me back if anything bad happens. How did he even find a way to this universe?"
"IDK? Google?"
"LoL! Cya later!"
"Bye!" Clicking the end call button, Athena felt enraged about her old friend's actions. The power of darkness was truly terrifying. Anyways, she went back to hall to watch the meeting of the new Smashers.
After Opening. . .
The new Smashers received a tour from Peach and she showed them places that were most important to go to. Lastly, she guided them to the Hall of Fame.
Lucina was in struck awe when she found out that Marth, The Hero King was going to be living under the same roof as her. She noticed that on top of his portrait, it had veteran above and below it picture, there was a small trophy display case with the trophies and awards he has earned. The girl became quite confused when she saw a trophy of Marth and some pink marshmallow with cleaning utensils. It was the "Squeaky Klean" trophy.
Lobby. . .
The Smashers were just chatting among themselves about whatever they wanted. Ike and Roy were basically talking about Samus and her black dress. Every Smasher had to wear a black suit and tie and a black dress.
"Oh yeah, where is Kirby? He'd be happy to see the newcomers," Ike mentioned. Now that Ike mentioned that, Kirby was gone. So was Marth and Snake.
"Snake would be staring at me the whole time if he were here," Samus noted. Everyone nodded in agreement.
Captain Falcon checked Samus out and nodded. A tic mark appeared on her head. "That looks great on you, Samus! The way your dress wraps around you. . . ! Yesss!"
"Fuck off, you perverted scatterbrain!" Samus grabbed him from his waist from behind, giving Falcon the idea that she was into him. Samus bent backwards with him. . . . He got suplexed.
The male Smashers immediately backed away from Samus knowing that they would end like Falcon if they pissed her off.
Hospital. . .
"So the bite gave him a coma and he's sure to wake up about a week? Okay, thank you for notifying us that." The nurse bowed her head in front of snake and left to Marth's room.
Snake ran a hand through his hair and sighed with frustration. "Maybe I should just keep this a secret. Not a fan of drama."
Kirby jumped up with excitement. "Ooh! Ooh! What happens if we try to leave to give Marth a gift?"
". . . . . I'll just escape in my helicopter."
"Fantastic idea! I'll get some of my friends from Dreamland."
"Ehh, that's not really necessary."
"Also, we can't tell anyone because I heard that Lucina is related to Marth and he's known as the Hero King and she might go crazy when she finds out Marth is in the hospital with a comma!"
"You make a good point."
The two just started to brainstorm ideas for their plan. After that, they went to Subway to get some lunch. Kirby didn't feel like going there since there was going to be a feast at the mansion. Snake forgot about, then quickly stormed out of the restaurant.
Smash Dining Hall. . .
For most of the Smashers, it was pretty awkward since the new Smashers were here and it was interesting. Pikachu felt most uncomfortable of all since he was forced to sit by Mew Two. Jigglypuff just stared at the Pokemon like "what the fuck, you're back? Asshole!".
Pit was telling Palutena about about how much fun he had when he joined brawl and what happened. Dark Pit was bored out of his mind and didn't even know why he was here. . . because Master Hand threatened Palutena that he would destroy SkyWorld and kill Pit.
Ike and Roy were so confused right now. There was a man who looked like as if he were Marth's relative or something, a girl who looked exactly like Marth- twin sister they thought and some guy who was really skilled with the elven sword. Ike really wanted to know why they knew so much about him, including Roy.
Samus sat at her dining table while listening to Wii Fit Trainer blab on about how she is the most fit person alive. Tic marks grew by the second, scaring Ness, Lucas and Toon Link. The Villager had a frightened expression. Samus slammed her fist on the table, making everyone turn her heads towards her. The Space Warrior stood up and yelled at her, "I'm going to make you eat those words! You wanna fight! Let's settle this right now!"
Her aura became to grow more dark and evil by the second and started to become more visible. Ness took the Villager by his hand and ran out of the dining hall with Lucas and Toon Link. WTF stood up with a confident face.
"I don't know-" Samus already got her in a cobra twist. WTF started to panic when her body began to feel more numb by the minute. Samus released her with a satisfied look.
"I hope you learned your lesson. Telling me you're more fit than me? Out of your mind."
Mario was explaining the basics of what happens here and what you're supposed to expect. Rosalina understood and kept listening.
Shulk and Athena were talking together about what they liked to do and their hobbies. Some of the guys kept glancing over at their table once in a while if they were getting too friendly.
"I also really love your accent," Athena complimented. "I have quite of an accent as well. It's like we're alike!"
"That's cool! We have so many things in common," Shulk said with joy. Athena nodded and leaned in towards Shulk. Ike, Link and Roy thought that they were gonna kiss, but stopped them immediately. They pulled each other away, but received weird looks.
"What was that for Ike," Athena asked very confused. "I was just showing him this app on my phone."
". . ."
(Toka Ton Ton)ヽ（ー｀）┌
All the Smashers were getting ready to go to bed. Athena crawled into her bed and shut her eyes. She waited patiently for Ikuto to do something weird to her, but felt nothing.
"That's strange. . ."
Ikuto was sleeping in Ike's room since he was practically forced to every night. Ike lended the cat-eared man a white t-shirt and black flannel pajama pants. Ike was already asleep, but Ikuto was awake sitting on the couch in Ike's room doing some thinking.
Link was about to go to his room to catch some zzz's, but Zelda stopped in front of him. "Zelda?"
"Link. . ." She looked away for a brief moment then looked back. Link was really confused. "Umm. . . would you like to go-"
"Mom? Dad? . . . Where am I? I'm at he Smasher's mansion. . . Yeah. I'm fine. . . Destiny? She's fine. . . Dinner? . . . Okay. Talk to you later. Bye. Fuck. . . o(╥﹏╥)o"
A/N: Sorry about this chapter. I'm not sure if this chapter was so great. I'm still trying to edit my story, but I decided it was time I posted another chapter. School is so hard when you have you're multi-tasking. Anyone a gamer, athlete, student with straight A's? Hope you enjoyed. Next Chapter: Dinner Dash
